Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour 125g
  • 1 cup sourdough starter 100g
  • 2 tbsp baking powder 16g
  • 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese 340g
  • 1 pound ground breakfast sausage 453g
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
  • Add flour, baking powder, and black pepper to a large mixing bowl. Mix well.
  • Shred cheese if needed, then add sausage, cheese, and sourdough starter to the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands (hands is easier). You will need to break the ground sausage up and thoroughly incorporate all the other ingredients throughout.
  • Roll the uncooked sausage balls into 1-inch balls and place them on the baking tray. They don’t spread much so you can put them pretty close together.
  • Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
